    Just seen the staff setting out the display in Asda this morning for Acer laptops. :money:

    Brief spec from what i could see of the sign:

    80GB HD
    Vista Basic
    Wireless LAN

    price £275.

    sorry i could not see the rest of the display and had little time to see the model number. But if Asda's 1year electrical goods policy applies to computers seems like a reasonable deal, hope it helps someome!:T

    i think there was another thread about this a while ago
    but if it only has 512 ram, its not so much of a good deal...

    It doesn't cost too much to upgrade ram though. What are the other specs?

    As someone has already said - at £179 this would be a bargain but at £279 it is pretty much what you would expect to pay - not such a bargain.
    Your really can not beat a good bargain !!!
  • Its not a bad price when you look at the price here
